Re: Strict DTD a new twist

This is getting strongly in the "Theory" realm and definitely OT here

I see websites setting up special pages for these devices. Sheer size
and navigability makes it plain stupidity to try and browse
the Web thru a small device.

But let's say I'm a businessman and I want to check up on the
stock, i'm travelling and I want to check up on the weather,
etc. etc. etc... these mobile devices present me with _the_
updated info -- perhaps 'website/saved/' URLs for special pages
for these 'Small Aperture Viewing Electronic Devices'. LOL
